Welcome back to The Monthly Truth - the conversation no one is having, but everyone needs to hear.

In this episode, we’re joined by Hannah Lawrence - PMDD advocate, TikTok creator (@hannahlb_) and dedicated volunteer at The PMDD Project. Hannah opens up about her journey with PMDD, the moment everything “clicked”, and how she turned one of the hardest periods of her life into meaningful awareness work inside her company.

Tune in to hear about:

💬 What PMDD really feels like when the “switch” flips

💬 How PMDD symptoms show up at work - brain fog, mood crashes, physical symptoms and more

💬 Why speaking up at work changed everything for her and her colleagues

💬 How she’s creating awareness, training and compassion in a male-dominated environment

This episode is honest, eye-opening and full of reminders that you’re not alone. If you’re navigating PMDD at work, trying to explain your symptoms to others, or simply need reassurance that what you’re experiencing is real - this one’s for you 💗
